Sentinel‐Based Inventory of Thermokarst Lakes and Ponds Across Permafrost Landscapes on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Earth and Space Science, 2021
Thermokarst lakes and ponds (hereafter referred to as thaw lakes) play an important role in the permafrost regions by regulating hydrology, ecology, and biogeochemistry.

Habitat complexity in shallow lakes and ponds: importance, threats, and potential for restoration

Hydrobiologia, 2021
In this review we describe patterns and mechanisms by which habitat complexity is crucial for the functioning of shallow lakes and ponds, and for the abundance and diversity of biological communities in these ecosystems. Habitat complexity is affected by

Seasonal patterns in greenhouse gas emissions from lakes and ponds in a High Arctic polygonal landscape

Limnology and Oceanography, 2021
Lakes and ponds can be hotspots for CO2 and CH4 emissions, but Arctic studies remain scarce. Here we present diffusive and ebullition fluxes collected over several years from 30 ponds and 4 lakes formed on an organic‐rich polygonal tundra landscape ...

Modern to millennium-old greenhouse gases emitted from ponds and lakes of the Eastern Canadian Arctic (Bylot Island, Nunavut) [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2015
Ponds and lakes are widespread across the rapidly changing permafrost environments. Aquatic systems play an important role in global biogeochemical cycles, especially in greenhouse gas (GHG) exchanges between terrestrial systems and the atmosphere.

Natural Climate Variability Can Influence Cyanobacteria Blooms in Florida Lakes and Reservoirs

EDIS, 2016
During the summer, many of Florida's nutrient-enriched lakes and reservoirs experience proliferations of cyanobacteria commonly called “blooms.” Cyanobacteria are natural in Florida lakes and reservoirs, but when they grow to high levels and bloom, they

Managing High Water Levels in Florida’s Largest Lake: Lake Okeechobee

EDIS, 2018
This 7-page fact sheet written by Karl E. Havens and published by the Florida Sea Grant College Program, UF/IFAS Extension, provides a history of Lake Okeechobee regulation schedules and an overview of the risks, constraints, and trade-offs that the US ...

Spatial and temporal variability in summertime dissolved carbon dioxide and methane in temperate ponds and shallow lakes

Limnology and Oceanography, 2023
Small waterbodies have potentially high greenhouse gas emissions relative to their small footprint on the landscape, although there is high uncertainty in model estimates.

The German Small Lake and Pond Inventory [PDF]

Earth System Science Data
Small lakes and ponds are hotspots of biodiversity, biogeochemical reactions, and hydrological interactions in the landscape. While mostly providing the same functions as larger lakes, they often do so at higher rates per unit area.
